DEX Introduces Supply Chain Application Suites

DEX (Data Exchange Corporation), a leading supply chain solutions provider for high tech industries, recently introduced unique and robust IT software solutions for companies worldwide through customizable, Oracle -based application suites. These scalable application suites support forward logistics, reverse logistics, repair, procurement, and supply chain integration.

To provide flexibility, DEX supply chain suites can be provided as stand-alone applications (licensed software bundles customizable by application suite) or managed applications (DEX-hosted, user-configured software applications that minimize start-up costs, eliminate ERP management, and reduce the overall IT budget).

"DEX has extended the standard Oracle eBusiness suite to add specialized functionality for aspects of the supply chain," stated Chip Dickinson, Senior Vice President and General Manager of DEX Systems. "With more than 12 years of expertise in supply chain software design and implementation, we can provide rapid IT systems design, integration and deployment services to our customers," concluded Dickinson.
